And if you do get that somehow please post it, I think a lot of people would find it interesting

But the OP may not find it 'interesting'. I guess he told us only half of the story.

A nice article. It seems likely that we will never really know how life started.

It is still very interesting to research this subject, because it might help us to learn more about the possibility of life on other planets.

From a scientific point of view we can - not just will - never know the origin of life. Of course, popular science frames it differently.

This is a bit of a departure from the question you asked, but I'm always amazed how much people tend to hyper-tune their dev environments, when in reality, most of my time is spent thinking how not to write code. I get just as much work done on a completely vanilla macbook with VS code installed on it as my editor-obsessed peers with obsessively optimized setups can.

How much actual code are you writing? I'd be really concerned with myself if I am putting out so much code that I need to be concerned with my text input speed.

IIRC, the average developer output is 10 lines of code per day.

Offices in the UK. I would encourage anyone in the EU who used this to file a GDPR complaint.

Lol, the US has an army because they need to attack other countries!

Nonsense, you can comfortable and well live with <10k/y in Vienna, Prague and other big cities, in the countryside even less.
ExpiredLink · 8 years ago
Nonsense, I live in central Europe.
